Scion of Gryffindor

another good chapter

Snicker. I can just see Ginny doing something like that.

Ch.25 - - A completely unexpected story you have here.

I am a BIG Neville fan, and you've made him quite intelligent here.

Good work. My compliments!

Another very good chapter. Yah not-a-pushover!Neville. I am still really enjoying the characterizations, and the slow development of the Harry/Tonks relationship.

Thanks for a great update to a really good story.

Can you skin Snape alive and use him like a bear skin rug?

I truly liked the story all the way up to the part where you signified it followed HBP. I wish you would have reconsidered as many people were quite put out with the story. Personally I thought the idea of Hocruxes was blah and boring and Harry a weakling. Well you dealt with harry, but truly the Hocruxes are not really that good of a plot.

Good work though.

btw I have to thank you... My "physical" ex-girlfriend read this story not to long ago... Do I really need to further explain....again thanks

Great story! Hope you'll update soon! :)
I don't usually like the Heir to the Founders stuff all too much but your story works well. Interesting how you make Harry/Tonks work. It's not a pairing that's automatically obvious. (Btw, I nearly didn't read your story as my first reaction to seeing H/T was, oh no, not Harry/Tom! I'm not very choosy about het or slash-pairings but there are one or two pairings such as Harry/Tom, Harry/Lucius that I absolutely don't want to see.)
I find your interaction between Dumbledore and Harry interesting and while I don't much like manipulative Dumbledore, in a lot of ways it makes more sense than how JKR wrote it in HBP with Harry being Dumbledore's man through and through. I'm really sorry about the way the relationship with Ron and Hermione turned out and hope that they'll both understand sooner or later and that the Trio can mend their friendship. They've stood with him through everything for five years, with the occasional fights sometimes making the friendship only stronger, it would be a pity for that friendship to be completely broken.
I also find your Narcissa interesting! And I like how you took some of the informations from HBP to weave into your story. Great work. Can't wait to read what's next.

(Oh, just one tiny thing that I spotted: when you first mentioned that meeting in Switzerland, you specified it was in Bern (unless I misread something) and in this chapter you said it was in Geneva.)

Hehehe genious I tell you, but political intrigues ain't realy much fun you know. Please get back to the T&T (Teaching & Teasing) soon k?

I'm usually more of a lurker then a reviewer, but I had to pop in to tell you how much I'm enjoying your story. I think Harry sounds like a little bit of a brat coming into his new status, but then again, he is just 16. I'd probably go hog-wild if I had been oppressed for that long, and then to be set loose. I'm all for Harry and Tonks dating. The guy that I have been with for almost 10 years is 5 1/2 years younger then me. 10 long years, and 2 beautiful children. Unfortunately, he can't stand HP, and so I use that knowledge whenever we argue-like calling him a muggle. His face turns an interesting shade of red.

Anyway, I hope you update again soon!

Weee! The ball was great crys! I loved harry and nim's banter, and harry's annoyance between first dumbles then fudge was great. The chat with the elder families was excellent as was the follow up with Nevile and co! CheerS!

Very good. I like the way the story is unfolding. Thanks for writing. I look forward to your updates.

Nice chapter, full of all sorts of set-ups. Going to be interesting seeing how they develop. I'm really enjoying your story. Keep up the good work.

Great chapter! :) Lovely way to (sorta) ring in the New Year. :-D Not a whole lot "happened", per se, but I think it was a good chapter for keeping things flowing. Not all chapters can be chocked full of stuff. ;) Good job with this one. Looking forward to the next, at your leisure, of course ;) hahaha. Thanks for sharing!

Best news in this chapter: Hermione urged Dumbledore to invite Harry to the Hogwarts ball. Sorry, I know I've got a one-track mind, but I'd like to see her friends again with Harry. I still think Harry was too quick to dismiss her. But I'll be quiet now.

Interesting chapter, introducing a new facet of the wizarding world - business groupings, social occasions and Wizengamot structures. Looking forward to seeing all these come about in the story - Halloween ball, the werewolf legislation, etc. Thanks for the story thus far!

Excellent chapter. I was happy with the way things flowed, and the tasteful balance of political tension in the air, as I had feared some sort of face off occuring between the large movers and shakers.

Happy 2006!

Excellent couple of chapters, I'm sorry that I didn't get around to reviewing sooner, but the holidays have been just a tad bit hectic for me this year. I must admit that I am pleasently suprised at how well this scene was handled. It gives an interesting perspective into the inner workings of there business world.

I think somewhere someone said that this was a boring chapter, or a fuller chapter or words to that effect. I thought it was a very good chapter showing Harry out and about. "All work and no play" sort of thing. Makes you wonder what kind of deals go on at "State Functions" Nice choice on the person seeing through Tonks disguise!
